Welcome. My name is Peter Thoshinsky. I'm a San Francisco based photographer with over 35 years of photography experience. I'm currently employed as the Historic Photographer for the San Francisco Police Department. My single and primary purpose is to "capture tomorrow's history today" from within this historic and proud police department as the men and woman in uniform deliver police services to what my be the most difficult city in America to police.

I update my blog frequently. I focus some of my blog energy on discussing things photographic, be it photographic style, gear, or grumbles. I encourage you to take a look as what I'm currently working on.

In 1999 Turner Publishing created a book of 100 of my black and white images chronicling my life as a San Francisco police officer. The book, "Blue in Black and White" is sadly not available except used on Amazon or EBay.
